Not sure how much sleep either of really had that night, but it goes down in the books as a delightful, fun, adventure of our Colorado trip.

He owned a pet shop and had several stuffed real animals in his home. It was creepy to a little girl and I guess that is why I dislike seeing animals preserved in that manner. Pictures are good in my mind. Ha!
